*** DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:

- Dr. Friendtastic says that friendship skills aren’t about just doing one thing because we have to be “able to flexibly adjust our behavior to fit the situation.” What does this mean? How might you adjust your behavior to fit a situation?

- How is managing friendship a bit like walking on a balance beam? (Hint: What are some of the things we need to balance?)

- Thinking about your own life, what have you learned about friendship in the past year?

- If you were to send in a question about friendship to Dr. Friendtastic, what would you want to ask?

- Which is your favorite episode of the Kids Ask Dr. Friendtastic podcast? Why?

- If you could have 100 of anything (not any form of money), what would you choose? Why? Where would you keep them?
